Answer:
7/12
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the probability of drawing a blue marble you need to find how many marbles there are in total.
So you have to add 3 red marbles, 7 blue marbles, and 2 green marbles to get the total.
So 3 + 7 + 2 = 12
There are 12 marbles in total so now you have to find how many blue marbles there are.
There are 7 blue marbles out of 12 marbles.
Now you have to put this as a fraction to see if it can be simplified.
7/12 cant be simplified, so the probability of drawing a blue marble is 7/12.
Answer:
This is a linear equation.
y = mx+b
y is the total cost.
The slope m is the rate: that's 9 dollars per hour.
x is the number of hours.
b is the initial value: that's 16 dollars.
y = 9x+16
The problem states that the cost was 79 dollars.
Substitute that for y and solve for x.
79 = 9x+16
63 = 9x
x = 7 hours

Answer:
see below
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x^2 + 8x − 5
To find the x intercepts set y = 0
0 =4x^2 + 8x − 5
Factor
0=(2x-1)(2x+5)
Using the zero product property
2x-1 =0 2x+5 =0
2x=1 2x = -5
x = 1/2 x = -5/2
The x intercepts are ( 1/2 ,0) and ( -5/2,0)
Rewriting in vertex form by completing the square
4 ( x^2 + 2x) -5
4 ( x^2+2x +1) -4*1 -5
4 ( x+1) ^2 -9
Vertex form is
a( x-h) ^2 +k where ( h,k) is the vertex
The vertex is ( -1,-9)
We know it opens upwards since a > 0
Plot the vertex and the x intercepts
The graph is symmetric on based on the vertex
